I barely got the camera ready in time to catch this all SD40-2 & SD40 consist leading a combo of trains 169 and 119 by the Amtrak Station in Spartanburg, SC. Six SD40-2 units of both Southern and N&W heritage were on the head end, with an R/C boxcar in the consist as well. I didn't see these two trains combined a lot back then.

  • thats awesome, its pretty cool with 4 engines then a box car then 2 more engines

  • @Retrainmytrain Glad you liked it! That was one of the old Southern R/C boxcars for receiving radio signals for mid-train helper units.

  • Definitely a great catch. Sure not likely to see great all EMD lachups like this anymore. I miss seeing lachups like this on trains now!

  • @lovemytrains Thanks! I miss those as well.

  • @rockguitarist946 Yeah, I agree. I sure do miss the days when this was an everyday consist. Thanks for watching!
